Reflections on a Friendship, and Ch. 12

My own reflection on this day is one of gratefulness and knowing that even in this world of death we are given blessing and allowed to grow, not apart from, but through our weakness. Christ makes that possible because of His life and death and working in us as we read His Word and closely follow Him through this ruined land.
We rejoice in His resurrection because it is our hope, of being made whole, finally free of this incurable spiritual disease. And we rejoice too in knowing God is not the God of the dead but of the living. With Christ we will meet new friends, but what a special thing to look forward to, to meet very special friends who have walked with us imagehere, shared their lives and love with us and made us what we never would have been without them. A special thanks to Beth, for 24.5 years of a very wonderful marriage and 27 years of life-changing friendship. Praise Christ. And I'm looking forward to seeing her again when this work is done.

Probably my favorite chapter.
